A passenger train from Duluth. Northern
division Omaha railroad, was ditched at
Cumberland at 2 O'Clock last Monday,
the 25th inst, by an open switch, burying
underneath the engine John Donahue, en-
gineer. aged thirty, Of Hudson, aud Fire
man George Webster, from Altoona. Sow.
eral employees were injured, including
Charles Murphy, the baggagenaster. No
passengers are known to have been injured.
The accident was caused by a north-hound
engine and cHboose, which had been side
tracked and neglected to close the
switch. The wreck, consisting of the en-
CINE, express and baggage cars, was re-
moved by the wreeking train. The train to
which the accident occurred left st. Paul

which falls chiefly upon the women, is, in fact
the principal source of revenue to the town.

of so, enjoy as rule dignifed leisure,
smoking their pipes with much elaboration

where they sit from morning till night
